mrb_pool_value is a structure that represents a value in the irep
literal pool and is unrelated to mrb_pool, which performs region-based
memory management. It has been renamed mrb_irep_pool to avoid confusion.
However, on C, there is no easy way to pass keyword arguments.
Therefore, when called `Kernel#instance_exec` on C, keyword arguments are converted to positional arguments.
This is a limitation of current mruby.

As #6359 pointed out, calling const_missing hook from E_XXX_ERROR (that
calls mrb_exc_get_id()) can be an attack vector. Since E_XXX_ERROR is
supposed to be a defined error class, we think that the situation where
it is undefined and the const_missing hook is called should be detected
as an error; fix#6359
This reverts commit e76bebe836 (#6309).
Because it crashes limited to gcc13 -O3.
ref. #6358.
Also, benchmark tests have shown that revert tends to be preferable in this time.
Suppress warnings for 0-length sequences is not required.
By commit f1a02dff58, it was introduced.
By commit 24939723d7, pseudo-variable length arrays are now used and the warning suppression is no longer needed.
By commit e8841fbf58, moved the intervening code.
Static proc objects defined as methods may be placed in 4-byte alignments in 32-bit environments.
This may be misinterpreted as an immediate value depending on the address.
Since C11 and C++11 have additional language features for byte alignment, corresponding compilers use them to define the `mrb_alignas()` macro.
For earlier compilers, they use their own extensions to define the `mrb_alignas()` macro.
GCC supports `__attribute__((aligned(alignment)))` since at least version 2.95.3 (1999).

According to GPT-4, support was added in version 2.7 (1995).
It is not known which version of Visual C++ added support for `__declspec(align(n))`.
According to GPT-4, at least Visual C++ 6.0 (1998) seems to support it.
Also, the documentation of past Intel C/C++ compilers that support `__declspec(align(n))` makes reference to support with Visual C++ 4.2 (1996).

This reverts commit ad2e626e7a.
Because of the changes made by #6282, the following code caused a problem.
```ruby
b = proc { break "BAD!" }
p self.tap { b.call }
# (expected) => break from proc-closure (LocalJumpError)
# (after #6282) => "BAD!"
```
I revived the `mrb_callinfo::blk` field to fix this, but it did not overcome the following problem.
```ruby
def m(&b); b = b.clone; GC.start; b.call; end
p m { break "OK!" }
# (expected) => "OK!"
# (revived blk) => break from proc-closure (LocalJumpError)
```
By adding a fast-path where we ignore boxed types we can gain a pretty substantial speedup of mrb_iv_get, making it about 25% faster during a standard optcarrot benchmark run.
NOTE: It is just mrb_iv_get that is that much faster, the whole benchmark seems to be about 3-5% faster with word boxing.
This allows the compiler to optimise the case in obj_iv_p into a range check. There does not seem to be any other very hot uses of this index and it grants a pretty big gain on optcarrot.
Set `env->cxt` to `NULL` when it is detached from the call frame.
In other words, we can determine if `env->cxt` is `NULL` or not.
Also, `mruby-binding` had been setting `env->cxt` unnecessarily, so this has been fixed.
- Don't create multiple envs on one ci.
- Don't share a env to different ci.
- Don't attach a closed env to any ci.
Changes in `envadjust()` can be simplified with those guarantees.
The purpose is to remove the `mid` field from the `mrb_cache_entry` structure.
The resulting RAM requirement for the method cache is reduced from 5 words per entry to 4 words per entry for 32-bit CPUs.
The relevant changes are as follows:
- Removed `MRB_USE_METHOD_T_STRUCT`.
The `mrb_method_t` type is now always defined as a structure.
- Include method IDs in `mrb_method_t`
Change the `flags` member to `uint32_t`.
The bitstring structure should be the same as the keys of the `mt` table in `class.c`.
I believe the impact on API compatibility with previous versions is minimal.
The `MRB_TT_BACKTRACE` object has been added for the purpose.
Previously, "use-after-free" could occur because the reference count in `backtrace_location::irep` was not incremented.
fixed#6160
Use stack variable addresses as identifiers instead of global variable values.
Since the stack variable address is uniquely determined within the call, there is no need to maintain a global variable.
This flag means all the characters in the string can be represented by a
single byte, i.e., the string does not contain any multi-byte character.
Those characters are likely ASCII characters, but may be a part of broken
UTF-8 sequence, so the term 'ASCII' is not sufficient.
If `Class#allocate` is prohibited, subclasses should also be implicitly prohibited.
```ruby
p Class.new(Struct).allocate.class
# => #<Class:0x82362ac00> by #6122
# => allocator undefined for #<Class:0x000000083a983220> (TypeError) by Ruby 3.2
```
Added `MRB_DEFINE_ALLOCATOR()` to allow subclasses to use `Class#allocate`.
Supplement to #6122.
The method introduced by #5979 causes a fault by swapping classes.
```console
% bin/mruby -e 'Method = Proc; p Object.method(:inspect)'
zsh: segmentation fault (core dumped) bin/mruby -e 'Method = Proc; p Object.method(:inspect)'
```
After applying this patch, a `TypeError` exception will be raised.
```console
% bin/mruby -e 'Method = Proc; p Object.method(:inspect)'
trace (most recent call last):
[1] -e:1
-e:1:in method: allocation failure of Proc (TypeError)
```
However, if the `mrb_vtype` is the same object, the same care must still be taken as before.
```console
% bin/mruby -e 'Method = Binding; p method(:puts).eval("12345")'
trace (most recent call last):
[1] -e:1
-e:1:in eval: wrong argument type nil (expected Proc) (TypeError)
```
